A novel bispecific antibody, BiSS, with potent anti-cancer activities.

ABSTRACT: One of the most active fields in cancer immunotherapy is the study of bispecific antibodies, which engage immune cells to kill cancer cells. However, a variety of issues are associated with most of current bispecific antibody formats. In this study, we present a novel bispecific antibody, BiSS (Bispecific antibody with Single domain, Single domain antibodies), which was constructed by linking 2 single domain antibodies, anti-CEA and anti-CD16, in tandem. Unlike most other bispecific antibodies, the BiSS antibody can be expressed and purified from E.coli in large quantities. By recruiting natural killer cells (NK cells) to CEA-positive cancer cells, BiSS led to cancer cell death in vitro. In xenograft models, the BiSS protein blocked cancer progression. The data suggested that the single domain-based bispecific antibody BiSS was functional and can be potentially applied to a broad range of immunotherapies.

Novel potent anti-STEAP1 bispecific antibody to redirect T cells for cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:BackgroundThe prognosis for metastatic Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (EFT) is still poor despite high-dose chemotherapy and radiation treatment. Immunotherapies hold promise, but cancer antigen-targeting immunotherapies have largely failed to induce effective T cell receptor-mediated antitumor response. However, T cell-engaging bispecific antibodies (T-BsAbs) have yet to be adequately explored.MethodsRehumanized STEAP1-IgG was used to build T-BsAb (named BC261) using the 2+2 IgG-[L]-scFv platform carrying the anti-CD3 huOKT3 scFv as the second specificity. Its binding epitope mapping, species cross-reactivity, tumor cell line staining, and in vitro cytotoxicity were investigated thoroughly. Its potency in driving tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) was quantified using bioluminescence, correlated with in vivo antitumor response against cell line-derived or patient-derived xenografts (CDXs or PDXs) and compared with anti-STEAP1 T-BsAbs built on representative antibody platforms.ResultsBC261 binding epitope was mapped to its second extracellular domain of STEAP1 shared among canine and primate orthologs. BC261 induced potent cytotoxicity against panels of EFT, prostate cancer, and canine osteosarcoma cell lines despite their low antigen density. BC261 drove significantly more TILs into tumors (30-fold) and exerted superior antitumor effects compared with the other standard BsAb platforms. The antitumor efficacy of BC261 was consistent against EFT and prostate cancer CDXs and PDXs.ConclusionsBC261 was highly efficient in driving T cell infiltration and tumor ablation. Either as stand-alone therapeutics or for ex vivo armed T cells, this novel anti-STEAP1 T-BsAb BC261 has therapeutic potential.

A Novel Anti-B7-H3 × Anti-CD3 Bispecific Antibody with Potent Antitumor Activity.

Project description:B7-H3 plays an important role in tumor apoptosis, proliferation, adhesion, angiogenesis, invasion, migration, and evasion of immune surveillance. It is overexpressed in various human solid tumor tissues. In patients, B7-H3 overexpression correlates with advanced stages, poor clinical outcomes, and resistance to therapy. The roles of B7-H3 in tumor progression make it a potential candidate for targeted therapy. Here, we generated a mouse anti-human B7-H3 antibody and demonstrated its binding activity via Tongji University Suzhou Instituteprotein-based and cell-based assays. We then developed a novel format anti-B7-H3 × anti-CD3 bispecific antibody based on the antibody-binding fragment of the anti-B7-H3 antibody and single-chain variable fragment structure of anti-CD3 antibody (OKT3) and demonstrated that this bispecific antibody mediated potent cytotoxic activities against various B7-H3-positive tumor cell lines in vitro by improving T cell activation and proliferation. This bispecific antibody also demonstrated potent antitumor activity in humanized mice xenograft models. These results revealed that the novel anti-B7-H3 × anti-CD3 bispecific antibody has the potential to be employed in treatment of B7-H3-positive solid tumors.

A Novel Bispecific Antibody Targeting PD-L1 and VEGF With Combined Anti-Tumor Activities.

Project description:Therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) blocking immune checkpoints have been mainly used as monotherapy. Recently, combination therapy targeting multiple immune checkpoints has recently been explored to increase anti-cancer efficacy. Particularly, a single molecule targeting more than one checkpoints has been investigated. As dual blocking of PD-1/PD-L1 and VEGF/VEGFR has demonstrated synergism in anti-tumor activities, we developed a novel bispecific antibody, termed HB0025, which is formed via fusing the domain 2 of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1D2) and anti-PD-L1 mAb by using mAb-Trap technology. HB0025 almost completely retains the binding affinities and the biological activities in-vitro when compared with the parent anti-PD-L1 mAb or VEGFR1D2 fusion protein. Preclinical data demonstrated that HB0025 was more effective in inhibiting cancer growth than anti PD-L1 mAb or VEGFR1D2 fusion protein. Thus, our bispecific antibody may bring about greater clinical benefits and broader indications.

A novel asymmetrical anti-HER2/CD3 bispecific antibody exhibits potent cytotoxicity for HER2-positive tumor cells.

Project description:BackgroundHuman epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is overexpressed in multiple cancers, which is associated with poor prognosis. Herceptin and other agents targeting HER2 have potent antitumor efficacy in patients with HER2-positive cancers. However, the development of drug resistance adversely impacts the efficacy of these treatments. It is therefore urgent to develop new HER2-targeted therapies. Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) could guide immune cells toward tumor cells, and produced remarkable effects in some cancers.MethodsA BsAb named M802 that targets HER2 and CD3 was produced by introducing a salt bridge and knobs-into-holes (KIHs) packing into the structure. Flow cytometry was performed to determine its binding activity and cytotoxicity. CCK-8, Annexin V/PI staining, western blotting, and ELISA were utilized to study its effect on cell proliferation, apoptosis, the signaling pathways of tumor cells, and the secretion of cytokines by immune cells. Subcutaneous tumor mouse models were used to analyze the in vivo antitumor effects of M802.ResultsWe generated a new format of BsAb, M802, consisting of a monovalent unit against HER2 and a single chain unit against CD3. Our in vitro and in vivo experiments indicated that M802 recruited CD3-positive immune cells and was more cytotoxic than Herceptin in cells with high expression of HER2, low expression of HER2, and Herceptin resistance. Although M802 showed weaker effects than Herceptin on the PI3K/AKT and MAPK pathways, it was more cytotoxic due to its specific recognition of HER2 and its ability to recruit effector cells via its anti-CD3 moiety.ConclusionsOur results indicated that M802 exhibited potent antitumor efficacy in vitro and in vivo. M802 retained the function of Herceptin in antitumor signaling pathways, and also recruited CD3-positive immune cells to eliminate HER2-positive tumor cells. Therefore, M802 might be a promising HER2 targeted agent.

Potent antitumor effect of T cells armed with anti-GD2 bispecific antibody.

Project description:BackgroundHumanized 3F8-bispecific antibody (hu3F8-BsAb) using the IgG(L)-scFv format (where scFv is single-chain variable fragment), where the anti-CD3 huOKT3 scFv is fused with the carboxyl end of the hu3F8 light chain, has potent antitumor cytotoxicity against GD2(+) tumors. To overcome the insufficient number and function of T cells in cancer patients, they can be rejuvenated and expanded ex vivo before arming with hu3F8-BsAb for adoptive transfer, potentially reducing toxic side effects from direct BsAb administration.ProcedureT cells from normal volunteers were expanded and activated ex vivo using CD3/CD28 beads for 8 days. Activated T cells (ATCs) were harvested and co-incubated with a Good Manufacturing Practice grade hu3F8-BsAb at room temperature for 20 min. These armed ATCs were tested for cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo against human GD2(+) cell lines and patient-derived xenografts in BALB-Rag2-/- IL-2R-γc-KO mice.ResultsHu3F8-BsAb armed ATCs showed robust antigen-specific tumor cytotoxicity against GD2(+) tumors in vitro. In vivo, T cells armed with hu3F8-BsAb were highly cytotoxic against GD2(+) melanoma and neuroblastoma xenografts in mice, accompanied by T-cell infiltration without significant side effects. Only zeptomole (10-21 ) quantities of BsAb per T cell was required for maximal antitumor effects. Tumor response was a function of T-cell dose.ConclusionBsAb armed T cells may have clinical utility as the next generation of cytotherapy combined with recombinant BsAb against human tumors for both adult and pediatrics, if autologous T cells can be activated and expanded ex vivo.

A novel 4-1BB/HER2 bispecific antibody shows potent antitumor activities by increasing and activating tumor-infiltrating T cells.

Project description:Resistance to HER2-targeted therapy narrows the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. Although 4-1BB/CD137 is a promising drug target as a costimulatory molecule of immune cells, no therapeutic drug has been approved in the clinic because of systemic toxicity or limited efficacy. Previously, we developed a humanized anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) HuA21 and anti-4-1BB mAb HuB6 with distinct antigen epitopes for cancer therapy. Here, we generated an Fc-muted IgG4 HER2/4-1BB bispecific antibody (BsAb) HK006 by the fusion of HuB6 scFv and HuA21 Fab. HK006 exhibited synergistic antitumor activity by blocking HER2 signal transduction and stimulating the 4-1BB signaling pathway simultaneously and strictly dependent on HER2 expression in vitro and in vivo. Strikingly, HK006 treatment enhanced antitumor immunity by increasing and activating tumor-infiltrating T cells. Moreover, HK006 did not induce nonspecific production of proinflammatory cytokines and had no obvious toxicity in mice. Overall, these data demonstrated that HK006 should be a promising candidate for HER2-positive cancer immunotherapy.

A Novel Bispecific Antibody Targeting CD3 and Lewis Y with Potent Therapeutic Efficacy against Gastric Cancer.

Project description:Lewis Y antigen, a glycan highly expressed on most epithelial cancers, was targeted for cancer treatment but lacked satisfactory results in some intractable and refractory cancers. Thus, it is highly desirable to develop an effective therapy against these cancers, hopefully based on this target. In this work, we constructed a novel T cell-engaging bispecific antibody targeting Lewis Y and CD3 (m3s193 BsAb) with the IgG-[L]-scfv format. In vitro activity of m3s193 BsAb was evaluated by affinity assay to target cells, cytotoxicity assay, cytokines releasing assay, and T cells proliferation and recruiting assays. Anti-tumor activity against gastric cancer was evaluated in vivo by subcutaneous huPBMCs/tumor cells co-grafting model and huPBMCs intravenous injecting model. In vitro, m3s193 BsAb appeared to have a high binding affinity to Lewis Y positive cells and Jurkat cells. The BsAb showed stronger activity than its parent mAb in T cell recruiting, activation, proliferation, cytokine release, and cytotoxicity. In vivo, m3s193 BsAb not only demonstrated higher therapeutic efficacy in the huPBMCs/tumor co-grafting gastric carcinoma model than the parent mAb but also eliminated tumors in the model of intravenous injection with huPBMCs. Strong anti-tumor activity of m3s193 BsAb revealed that Lewis Y could be targeted in T cell-engaging BsAb for gastric cancer therapy.

A Novel Anti-HER2 Bispecific Antibody With Potent Tumor Inhibitory Effects <i>In Vitro</i> and <i>In Vivo</i>.

Project description:Overexpression of HER2 has been reported in many types of cancer, making it a perfect candidate for targeted immunotherapy. The combination of two FDA approved monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), trastuzumab and pertuzumab, has more robust anti-tumor activity in patients with HER2-overexpressing breast cancer. We recently produced a new humanized anti-HER2 mAb, hersintuzumab, which recognizes a different epitope than trastuzumab and pertuzumab on HER2. This mAb, in combination with trastuzumab, exhibits more potent anti-tumor activity than each parental mAb alone. Here we have developed a novel bispecific anti-HER2 antibody (BsAb) designated as trasintuzumab, composed of trastuzumab and hersintuzumab, using dual variable domain immunoglobulin (DVD-Ig) technology. Both variable domains of trasintuzumab are fully functional and have similar affinities to the parental mAbs and are also able to bind to natural HER2 on the surface of several HER2-expressing cell lines. Trasintuzumab was found to inhibit the growth of different types of tumor cell lines through suppression of the AKT and ERK signaling pathways as efficiently as the combination of the parental mAbs. It also induced tumor regression as potently as the combination of the two mAbs in nude mice bearing ovarian and gastric cancer xenografts. Our data suggest that trasintuzumab may be a promising BsAb therapeutic candidate for the treatment of HER2-overexpressing cancers.

Novel Anti-LY6G6D/CD3 T-Cell-Dependent Bispecific Antibody for the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer.

Project description:New therapeutics and combination regimens have led to marked clinical improvements for the treatment of a subset of colorectal cancer. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown clinical efficacy in patients with mismatch-repair-deficient or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). However, patients with microsatellite-stable (MSS) or low levels of microsatellite instable (MSI-L) colorectal cancer have not benefited from these immune modulators, and the survival outcome remains poor for the majority of patients diagnosed with mCRC. In this article, we describe the discovery of a novel T-cell-dependent bispecific antibody (TDB) targeting tumor-associated antigen LY6G6D, LY6G6D-TDB, for the treatment of colorectal cancer. RNAseq analysis showed that LY6G6D was differentially expressed in colorectal cancer with high prevalence in MSS and MSI-L subsets, whereas LY6G6D expression in normal tissues was limited. IHC confirmed the elevated expression of LY6G6D in primary and metastatic colorectal tumors, whereas minimal or no expression was observed in most normal tissue samples. The optimized LY6G6D-TDB, which targets a membrane-proximal epitope of LY6G6D and binds to CD3 with high affinity, exhibits potent antitumor activity both in vitro and in vivo. In vitro functional assays show that LY6G6D-TDB-mediated T-cell activation and cytotoxicity are conditional and target dependent. In mouse xenograft tumor models, LY6G6D-TDB demonstrates antitumor efficacy as a single agent against established colorectal tumors, and enhanced efficacy can be achieved when LY6G6D-TDB is combined with PD-1 blockade. Our studies provide evidence for the therapeutic potential of LY6G6D-TDB as an effective treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer.
